 “1970” & “1975” Eisenhower Dollars – Production Blog

All are over-struck on genuine US Mint Eisenhower Dollars (circa 1971-1978), unless otherwise noted.
Some were broad-struck and/or multiply struck with moderate shift between strikes.

The US Mint produced Eisenhower Dollars from 1971 to 1978. Although Frank Gasparro prepared a galvano model dated "1970", no coins with that date were ever released. And none were issued with "1975" dates because the "1776-1976" Bicentennial coins were minted during the 1975 and 1976 calendar years.

NOTE: These are NOT endorsed by the US Treasury. Defacing of US coins is legal so long as the defacement isn't for fraudulent purposes.
